Intellij 14 can't checkout subversion

Since the update from Intellij 13 to Intellij 14, I can't make a checkout with subversion, since I can browse the repository. I received this message:

Cannot run program "svn" (in directory "..."): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

I'd got the same error before under Intellij 13 and the solution was to uncheck the Use command line client option in File/Settings/Version Control/Subversion. So I verify this parameter but it was already uncheck. Any idea ?

Follow the steps: Studio-> Settings->Subversion-> Uncheck "Use command-line client".

This happened to me after updating. There appears to be 2 settings for this - one in an active project and one in the default "Welcome to IntelliJ IDEA" screen.

To fix it click:

  1. "Configure" with a gear icon in the bottom right.
  2. "Settings" from the popup
  3. "Version Control" from the list on the left
  4. "Subversion" and then there is a check box next to "Use command line client"

This check box is different from the one in File > Settings so unchecking this fixed the issue.

To resolve this I:

  • Open the settings here File/Settings/Version Control/Subversion
  • Check the option Use command line client.
  • Close the panel.
  • Have a new warning from IntelliJ about the use of subversion with command line.
  • Reopen the settings here File/Settings/Version Control/Subversion
  • Uncheck the option "Use command line client".
  • Close the panel.
  • Try the checkout...

... and then it worked. I think it was a default parameter in the configuration out there.
